Peach Pie

I made my second peach pie today with peaches from our trees!  The first pie was made with white peaches, and today's pie was made using yellow peaches.

I didn't get my crusts sealed too well, so there was some boil-over action going on, so it's a good thing I'm not being judged on appearance/presentation!

Julianne was sitting with Daddy while we were enjoying our evening treat.  She was watching him so intently, but when I snapped the camera, she gave me this face!

Back to watching Daddy

Daddy finally decided he would share, but I think Julianne had second thoughts!

Until next time...

Just Peachy!

Remember this Spring when I mentioned our two young peach trees were full of blooms that did turn into small peaches?  We weren't sure if those little guys would develop into anything worthy, but a few of them did!  Quite a few of the peaches fell off the tree, before fully ripening, during the heavy rain showers and windy days.  In the end, we were able to eat a handful of them fresh, and I was able to use about a dozen of them (plus a few additional ones from a friend) to make a peach pie!

I lost track of how many times the kiddos and Doug thanked me for the pie...I think it might have been a big success!

Until next time...

Fun Friday Fotos

After we ended our kite flying, Daddy went back to mowing the yard, and the kiddos played in the tall grass behind the barn.

They laughed and laughed and laughed!

Last year, we planted 2 peach trees and an apple tree.  Last month (mid-April), the peach trees were full of blooms!

Then, one day last week, I noticed all the little peaches!  It will be interesting to see how well they ripen.

Until next time...
